Saw this on Jalopnik. It's an Argentine Air Force trainer jet. This is one crazy and/or stupid sumbitch.  :o

I could translate what the guys on the ground are saying after he goes by them...but it wouldnt quite comport with the family friendly nature of this site. :D

If you look a the HUD closely (its kinda hard to see), it says he's doing .46 mach. That's almost 400mph.

Here's what I was thinking about....those planes are TRAINERS. Meaning that whoever did that pass was some incredibly ballsy and reckless newbie, or an instructor hot dogging it (which is kinda cool).

His ASI read 300 knots (seemed to bounce between 299 to 300), mach speed would have been .45, with an altitude of 10 feet off the ground.

Translates to roughly 345mph  :icon_smile_big:

That being said the top speed of the trainer is only 440 knots....

Easier if you have a radar altimeter (and trust it).
Pardon me but my karma just ran over your dogma.
